David,

I only just got around to trying this, but it seems like you're right,
using /cell_fill is the answer here! Everything looks OK at the date
line for me too (I've added an extra longitude to my data so that it
'wraps around', but I'm assuming you did this in your plot?).

Thank you very much for your help,

Matt
